NAME

       CPAN::Reporter::PrereqCheck - Modulino for prerequisite tests

VERSION

       version 1.2019

SYNOPSIS

         require CPAN::Reporter::PrereqCheck;
         my $prereq_check = $INC{'CPAN/Reporter/PrereqCheck.pm'};
         my $result = qx/$perl $prereq_check < $prereq_file/;

DESCRIPTION

       This modulino determines whether a list of prerequisite modules are available and, if so, their version
       number.  It is designed to be run as a script in order to provide this information from the perspective
       of a subprocess, just like CPAN::Reporter's invocation of "perl Makefile.PL" and so on.

       It reads a module name and prerequisite string pair from each line of input and prints out the module
       name, 0 or 1 depending on whether the prerequisite is satisfied, and the installed module version.  If
       the module is not available, it will print "n/a" for the version.  If the module is available but can't
       be loaded, it will print "broken" for the version.  Modules without a version will be treated as being of
       version "0".

       No user serviceable parts are inside.  This modulino is packaged for internal use by CPAN::Reporter.
